In the case of OSS libraries and open-source distributors, there's no sale happening.

What I see emerging is a dual license system where you can buy a supported version that's compliant with whatever European law or get the one hosted on an American mirror (where thankfully European law doesn't apply).

True. I should have said "distribute". But the point holds.

Until the great EU firewall happens.
